From Brad KB7FQR
I could not tell who has the BTA 500 1R1 etc, I am intrested to chat with
you. I am an tube collector who has been out of the hobby for years and have
gotten back in with both feet. I have a Johnson 500 and want to build a
4-1000 amp or other. My motto is NO GLOW NO GO I am in the process of
getting a Gates BT5 and looking for other broadcast transmitters on the West
coast.
I live in N Nevada, have 6 acres and room to store a 50 kw if i can find
one. I am new to the site, I am impressed at the quality of hobbyist
encountered. NOT APPLIANCE OPERATORS.
Best regards to all
Brad

But Class E transmitters don't glow in the dark. You have to put Xmas
lights in them.
Parts are not that difficult to find if you're willing to spend the time
to find them.
To me, Class E (asy) lacks the traditional nostalgia that many of us feel
in a tube-based transmitter.
As someone already pointed out, there are lots of great circuits in the
older ARRL Handbooks, Radio and Engineers' Handbook, etc.
The ARRL has a new book just out called RF Amplifier Classics and
includes two-dozen projects and articles from the pages of QST and QEX,
published between 1980 and 2003. There are amps for HF, MF, VHF and
microwave.
